↳ABOUT

👋 Hi, I'm Jay, a designer, developer & gardener 🌱

I'm currently a senior digital designer at MOBI, a Wellington based SaaS company serving the global hospitality industry.

↳PROJECTS

MOBI is the digital partner of hospitality, providing an enterprise-grade ecosystem for restaurant brands.

In 2022, after securing series C funding, we rolled out a new company name and identity.

The design team ensured MOBI maintained a consistent look for our global customer base.

I designed these social ads and infographics to illustrate how the company delivers value for enterprise restaurant brands.

Working closely with our clients I integrate their brand identity with MOBI's white-label digital ordering system. Check out our implementation for Zambrero.

The UI/UX is customised so their users receive an intuitive ordering experience and can easily navigate complex menus.

Logo designs for the Aotearoa Digital Arts Network and Spacelamp, places for good.

Animated Spacelamp

An ongoing project in collaboration with the Aotearoa Digital Arts Network and developer Harriet Waldron.

We built out a new headless front-end site with React and Gatsby.js connected to ADA's archive of stored art data in WordPress.

I developed a fresh visual langauge for the organization with nods to their lofi roots.

This is a real labour of love and we continue to develop the project.

Previously, I was a senior digital designer on the Marketing team at this Sydney based HR and payroll platform, on a mission to make work easy.

The Design Studio collaborated closely with the Brand and Content teams to develop strategic campaigns aimed at generating leads and positioning the company as a thought leader.

This involved creating guides and tools for SmBs and breaking down complex product features into easily digestable and engaging content.

In 2022 I completed an online Permaculture Design Course. I'm grateful to have a garden space where I'm planting for abundance and putting the teachings into practice.

I'm now exploring ways of bringing the core principles into my design practice: Earth Care, People Care and Fair Share.
